Ed Hughes' A Time For Singing for Clarinet Cello and Piano. Score and parts.'My sister the clarinettist Alison Hughes is a member of the Camilleri Trio who gave the first performance. The work was conceived in memory of our aunt Gillian Nicholls.The four movements are:1. Walk with rainstorm2. Song3. Scherzo4. Until the day breakIt is a kind of narrative - in one sense an imagined walk through a changing landscape. A very English one in other words one in which it rains! But sometimes lit up by sunshine.It remembers Gillie Nicholls who loved walking and loved life. She died from cancer in2010. I wanted to write a piece that would remember her and her wonderful enthusiasm and sense of humour as well as forming a more traditional lament. So there are elements of each in this piece.Gillie was also a profoundly spiritual person. When she and John Muddiman married in 2010 they asked me to write a short song for the wedding 'Rise Up My Love' using words from 'Song of Solomon'.The new work for the Camilleri Trio commissioned by Jennifer Hughes in memory of her sister Gillian Nicholls also refers in the main title and in the last movement title to lines from 'Song of Solomon':the time of the singing of birds is come - Song of Solomon 2:12Until the day break and the shadows flee away - Song of Solomon 2:17A Time for Singing was written for the Camilleri Trio - Alison Hughes (clarinet/bass clarinet) Anja Inge (cello) Joanne Camilleri (piano). It was first performed by them at Mansfield Chapel Mansfield College Oxford on 30 October 2011.' - Ed Hughes

A compilation of Soul and Soul-influenced music, ranging from such classics as Stand By Me and Marvin Gaye's Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler) to some surprising modern gems like Portishead's Glory Box and Duffy's Mercy . In the late 1950's black American music started to fuse the spiritual passion of gospel singing with the gritty sexual drive of rhythm 'n' blues. The result was called soul, Ray Charles was its early pioneer, and so this year-by-year soul collection kicks off with his classic 1959 call-and-response song, What'd I Say . James Brown, Otis Redding, Solomon Burke and Aretha Franklin all carried soul into the golden period of the 1960's and from then on the genre would be a permanent fixture in the international pop music landscape. So... get ready to enjoy 50 years of pure soul, the electrifying musical hybrid that never went out of fashion! / Piano/Vocal/Guitare (PVG)
